Can we talk about SWV 
For a group that had a huge handful of the biggest hits of the 90s, dominated Pop & R&B radio, sold nearly 30 million records, 1 of the main ones that helped R&B go mainstream, they really was cheated out so much imo. Let me remind y’all real quick:

Weak 
Honestly, Top 5 of the biggest R&B songs in the 90s A song that...to this day is in heavy rotation 
the multi-platinum classic hit #1 on R&B and the Hot 100....Fun Fact: Weak was actually written for Charlie Wilson but he didn’t want it, & it was given to SWV

Right Here (Human Nature Remix) This MJ sampled track became a 90s treasure that still standing the test of times. It was so smooth & heavenly. They were the first act ever that MJ let sample him for free. He was a fan of the girls & also had them open up for him twice on tour

Always On My Mind Definitely one of the most timeless sounding hit songs from this group. The group showcased addictive harmonies & melodies while lead singer Coko & songwriter Brian Morgan go head to head in a back & forth duet

Use Your Heart a song that became one of @Pharrell ‘s first written hits in his career. He was young but the gift in him was stirring on the inside and that + the beautiful harmonies/vocals of SWV was pure magic to the ears on this 1996 hit

Right Here (Original Version) Despite the popularity of the Human Nature Mix, the original Right Here became a hit also. It was their first song released & first hit. While the Remix was more laid back & relax, the original was more for the dance scene

Hey Az Nas protégé, AZ chose the New Yorkers to feature on his hit song in the late 90s. Although the song features vocals from all 3 ladies, only Coko showed up for the music video. Most likely due to the already boiling drama within the group
